Drum variator needle bearings of New Holland combine harvesters
Initial situation
On New Holland TX and CX combine harvesters, needle bearings on the drum variator suffered damage after just 30 operating hours - resulting in repeated failures and costly repairs.
Our solution
Switching to Interflon Grease MP2/3 significantly extended bearing life. Unlike conventional greases that dripped out under high temperatures, Interflon Grease MP2/3 remained in place, providing long-lasting protection.
- Wear and tear now occurs only after 1.5 to 2 years
- No bearing failures during harvest season
Result
- €11,500 saved over two years with zero breakdowns
- Up to 3 repairs per year avoided, each costing €3,500 - €4,000
- Grease consumption reduced 5x
